[0021] Tea, commonly known as tea, generally includes leaves and buds of tea trees, and is also known as tea, acer, mian, and tea. Tea contains catechin, cholestenone, caffeine, inositol, folic acid, and pantothenic acid, which are beneficial to health. The processing of tea varies depending on the variety, and different processing techniques will result in different flavors of tea products. Some tea needs to be compressed into various shapes before being sold, such as Pu'er tea, Chenxiang tea, and black tea, which are usually made into different shapes such as circles, squares, spheres, or cylinders. Therefore, molds are needed. The existing tea processing mold is not convenient for placing tea leaves in the mold cavity and removing the tea leaves retained in the mold cavity after the upper mold and the lower mold are separated.
